Customer Reviews
Well researched and informative
A great podcast that will take anyone new to this topic through the issues from A to Z. Well researched and professionally presented.
Australia needs to get its act together.
This is very informative and horrific.
We don’t have “ best practice”, despite politicians and hospitals telling us we do.
So shocking.
Well done to those who put the program together and to their guests.
Everyone needs to know what this podcast presents.
The three episodes flow looks vocally into each other. They present well researched information about gender ideology with a focus on children and adolescents in the context of “gender identity” and “gender affirming care”. The episodes include interviews with qualified professionals and parents. It is very interesting listening in the wake of the final report by Dr Hilary Cass in England which has vindicated whistleblowers like Dr Jillian Spencer. Excellent series.
